Visual Studio Installer, File Overwrite Issue
-
Thanks for any help ahead of time. The Visual Studio Installer docs aren't a lot of help and I figured I'd appeal to someone who had more experience maybe. The problem is that I have created an installer package but one of the files will not overwrite the file present on the target machine. However, if I delete the file on the target machine FIRST, then run the installer, the file installs perfectly. This tells me the file is there and the path is correct, it just won't overwrite the current file (and doesn't even prompt to ask for permission). The file on the target machine is: Version: 1.00 Creation Date: 7/9/04 Modified Date: 4/1/04 The file I am trying to install is: Version: 1.00 Creation Date: 7/9/04 Modified Date: 7/9/04 I don't know the installer that well. Is this a problem with the versioning or dates? I don't have access to these components (third party) and can't change them manually without going to the company with a definite problem. Any help would be appreciated and I can provide more info if necessary. Thanks, Brian "In the beginning the Universe was created.
